India Post — financial irregularity of delayed credit of amount in scss:[protected] and [protected]

Address:A 503 SILVERENE THE HERMITAGE CHSL, MIRAGAOTHAN MIRA ROAD THANE OFF NE, HIGHWAY BEHIND MAHAVISHNU TEMPLE

I had opened a senior citizen saving scheme in sub po, bhayander branch, palgarh 401105, maharashtra.

The following cheques were deposited through the spo in their dependant sbi at palghar branch - a/c: [protected] :-

(A) hdfc bank crossed cheque no: [protected] dated 06 aug 19 for a sum of rs 5, 00, 000/-.
(B) icici bank crossed cheque no: 949787 dated 06 aug 19 for a sum of rs 10, 00, 000/-

The spo bhayander (Pin 401105) authorities stated that the amount (Rs 1500000) was credited on 28 aug 2019.

However, as per the my bank statements of hdfc and icici, copy attached, the amount was debited on 23 aug 2019. A mismatch of five days resulting in a loss of interest to the tune of 2000/- plus existed.

I took up a case with spo. They said that sbi palgarh - their dependent bank, had confirmed credit date of 28 aug 19, and they can do nothing about it.

Later, i took up the case with superintendent, mr remireddy at po mira road, 401107. However, i was informed by superintendent po, mira road,, that the post office has an account with sbi palgarh branch - a/c: [protected]. And that sbi had intimated that the amount was credited into their account [protected], on 28 aug 2019. Copy of deposit slip of spo attached, and that such variation exists in all other accounts too.

It appears that sbi palgarh, the dependent bank of post offices in palgarh dist, has retained rs 15 lakhs for five days resulting in loss of interest to me to the tune of rs 2000 plus.

You are requested to take up the case with sbi authorities to rectify this financial irregularity, rectify the credit date from 28 aug 2019 to the correct date of 23 aug 2019, which results in a financial loss to me - a postal customers.

In July 2020 I opened SCSS account for five lakh in Chumukedima S.O. Nagaland Pin : 797103 at the interest rate of 7.4, the interest amount coming to Rs. 9250/-( Rs. Nine thousand two hundred fifty) which is quarterly credited in the SB pass book. So when I presented my pass book to SPM for the entry of my first quarter of interest he gave me a deposit slip wherein I wrote the interest amount as Rs. 9250/- but before entering the interest amount in my pass book, probably not being sure of the amount written in the deposit slip, he talked to someone from his mobile after that he changed figure in the deposit slip to Rs. 9051/- but I told him that the amount he has written is not correct, it should be Rs. 9250/-. And even I told him that I have calculated the interest in India Post calculator which came to Rs. 9250/- and not Rs. 9051/-. We had argument for some time over the issue but he was adamant and at the same time furious with me. Finally, he had his way and since then he has been
entering Rs. 6051/- in my pass book. From where he got this amount and at what rate He is calculating the interest I fail to understand. He is a very difficult person to deal with. It's a day light robbery. What is happening to my remaining Rs. 199/- that I am deprived of. Therefore, through your esteemed post I seek for the redressal of my complain. He can't cheat me like this otherwise I have to bring this matter to the notice of higher authority as well.
